Topics in Mathematics of Computer Science



                                         

Lecturer: Dr. Maurice Cochand



                                         

Coordinator: Aleksander Momot



                                         


Contents: This is a course in graph theory with a focus on new developments in expander graphs. It is suitable for master students in Mathematics or Ph.D. candidates in computer sciences. An expander graph is a sparse graph that has strong connectivity properties, quantified using vertex, edge or spectral expansion. Expander constructions have spawned research in pure and applied mathematics, with several applications to complexity theory, design of robust computer networks, and the theory of error-correcting codes.

Examination modus: Oral exam. 'Testat' required.

Problem sheets, solutions to the exercises and information about the 'Testat' can be found here.
